Silence of the Heart

“Silence of the heart, not only of the mouth— that too is necessary. Then you can hear God everywhere: in the closing of the door, in the person who needs you, in the birds that sing, in the flowers, in the animals,—that silence which is wonder and praise.” — Blessed Mother Teresa

Personally, I am always looking for silent moments to pray and reflect…on planes, on trains, in Churches…trying to fill my soul with inspiration and peace, so necessary for the daily battle of life, and so helpful to perceive God’s silent activity in the ordinary moments of every day.
